Use it to send documents for signature, track signing status, replace recipients, and more – all triggered by the events you choose. Common scenarios include: - Create an **embedded signing link** so recipients can sign documents directly within your app. - Generate an **embedded sending link** to let others prepare and send documents for signature. - **Update recipients** or signing order in an existing invite. - **Track document status** and see who has signed or is pending. - **Pre-fill document fields** to save time for recipients. - **Send multiple files as a document group** for signing in a single workflow. - **Download signed documents** automatically after completion. ## **Prerequisites** 1. A Microsoft 365 account with access to Power Automate. 2. A SignNow account on the US server with an active Site License or an API subscription plan (including free trial). 3. Basic knowledge of building flows in the Power Automate app. ## Authentication The SignNow connector uses **OAuth 2.0** authentication. When you add the connector to your flow, you’ll be prompted to: 1. Enter your **SignNow account credentials**. 2. Grant Power Automate permission to access your SignNow data. Once connected, you can reuse the same connection across flows. ## Connect SignNow to Power Automate Once you are in Power Automate, select **Connections > + New connection** from the left panel. Then search for *signnow* in the search field. ![sn_pa_connections.png](/reference-assets/images/Power%20Automate/sn_pa_connections.png) Select the SignNow connector and click **Create**. Sign in using your account credentials. ## Create a flow Let's create a first flow in Power Automate. Click **Create** in the left panel and select the way you would like to create a flow: - Start from blank - Start from a template - Start from a connector Under **Start from blank**, you’ll see several options. The three most common ones are: - **Automated cloud flow** → runs when a specific trigger happens (e.g., “When an item is created in SharePoint”). - **Instant cloud flow** → runs manually (e.g., you click a button). - **Scheduled cloud flow** → runs on a schedule. Let's select **Start from blank** > **Instant cloud flow** to create a custom flow from scratch and run it manually. Name your flow and choose how to trigger it. Click **Create**. ![sn_pa_flow_creation.png](/reference-assets/images/Power%20Automate/sn_pa_flow_creation.png) On the flow page, hover over the plus sign **(+)** and click it to add an action to the flow. > You must log into your SignNow account to use the action. Enter *signnow* in the search bar to view the available list of actions. Select the action to add it to the flow. Configure the action. - Add the required and optional parameters. - Set up settings. - Select the **Code view** tab to check the request JSON. - Select the **Testing** tab to view the testing options. ## SignNow connector actions An **action** is what you want to happen after your flow is triggered. Each action may require certain inputs to run correctly. These inputs can come from the trigger or from actions you added earlier in the flow. When the action runs, it produces an output, which could be a document, a value, or any data you can use in the next steps of your flow. The following actions are available: | Action | Description | |--------|-------------| | [Create document embedded invite](/docs/power-automate-signnow-embedded-signing-actions#create-document-embedded-invite)| Creates an embedded signing invite for a document.
